:D I am up and running! EIGHT HUNDRED DOLLARS LATER, but I am up and running!!!! Much more than I previously thought was wrong. Had to take my boat to Doctor's Creek Marine here in Paris. They treated me right considering all that was wrong. I had a power pack burned out, was hitting on only 4 of 6 cylinders. Then there was the fuel line. Bulb was hard as a rock. I pulled the line around to hook it up and it broke in half. Then there was the trim. Motor on the hydraulic pump froze up. Put another pump on it, filled it with fluid, all four lines spewed like a shower.Then there was the 4 inches of water in the fuel tank. We're on our way! We'll be there Friday night! Y'all look for us!
